The backrest works from electric fine, if you pull lever under seat you can move it forward or back, but cannot find anything to raise seat at all. Everything else works fine.

Can you find a switch that raises the seat? If not there might not be an adjustment.

Best, Ken

There must be a way of raising it? It is more or less on the floor. Anyone got the same problem and can help? It is driving me mad.

It shows a seat height adjustment motor so it must be able to move.

Here is a guide and some diagrams so you can test if the switch is putting power to the motor.

Please let us know what you find.
